The Auto Project

Accomplishments

  • Released the second Great Lakes Automotive Pollution Prevention Project Progress Report (Report Link Coming Soon) in the Fall of 1995. This report details the accomplishments of the Project and establishes its future direction.
  • Achieved a production normalized 15 percent reduction in the release of the 65 persistent toxic substances. This reduction is even greater, increasing to 55 percent, if releases of zinc at two foundries are excluded in calculations.
  • As of May 1996, over forty case studies published and made available to the public.
  • Agreement on mission statement and operating guidelines for the expanded U.S. Auto Project.
  • Participation in technology transfer and assistance forums, e.g. the October 20, 1995 North American Auto Supplier Environmental Workshop held for over 300 suppliers in Toronto.
  • Utilization of higher education summer interns on in-depth joint pollution prevention projects.
